Class Content: Join Susan Watson for this fun multi-media mosaic class! By using mortar, a provided substrate ( ~ 6″ to 8″ round or square) and a variety of glass/ stone/ ceramic pieces, students will have a finished piece ready to frame by the end of the day! Susan will have available pre-cut stained glass pieces (eg butterfly, dogwood, sailboat) which can be used as the main element of the design, if a student wishes. All materials will be provided, so just bring an apron and your creativity!
Supply List: Bring an apron.
Optionally— Anything special you’d like to incorporate in the piece — broken jewelry, broken pottery or glass, beads, etc. (Not necessary, we will provide a wide variety of materials)
Biography: Susan Watson is a stained glass master craftsman, now retired after 29 years at Dollywood. Her interest in mosaics started back in the late 1980s when she developed a method for stained glass stepping stones. This morphed over the years into multimedia mosaics as she started to combine materials into her mosaics. Susan has studied Mosaics all over the world under various teachers and their methods. “I particularly like adding organic elements into my mosaic designs — stones, shells, ceramics, etc.”, says Susan.
